Thanks. I sprayed all over my cloths to keep them off. The Sangres seem to have the worst bugs in July compared to other ranges. Just got back from San Juans and there was not nearly as many bugs there
Congratulations on this challenging two peak climb. You were in the land of the 14'ers. Great video and music too. I hope to backpack to the Willow Lakes one day.
Thanks Vickie. Love the Sangres. Probably my second fav range after the San Juans. Plan to go back in the fall and bag some more peaks. Willow Lake is stunning, you will love it. Late Aug/Sept probably the best time to go with cooler weather and less bugs
Hey guys. Would have been lovely to run into you guys. My wife and I love your channel and we watch every episode of yours together on big screen tv. She is into RV/van life and I’m into hiking/mountain climbing. Retirement is not too far away for us
@@ruggedland You both are so kind. I'm so happy you both have enjoyed our hiking videos. It's been a dream of mine for more than two years. I love hiking so much that I wanted to share all the beauty among the mountains. My videos from 2023 are not very good. I was just learning how to film but I've learned from my mistakes. We just got back from a backpacking trip to Gibraltar Lakes in the Indian Peaks Wilderness. I sprained my ankle pretty bad on the hike out. So many people stopped to help but I was determined to hike out on my own to see how bad the injury is. Hopefully it's all better in week. Tell your wife thank you from us. I've enjoyed your channel too. Cheers, to many more adventures for all of us.
I've looked at those peaks many times since 1959. Thanks for the view from the top.
You are welcome. Glad you enjoyed it
What a wonderful climb in a very interesting range. Willow Falls and Lake are a nice bonus. Thanks!
Thanks Mark!
Absolutely superb videography throughout! Regarding mosquitos: I believe Nick Sangetta burns citronella to ward off bugs.

Great video and congratulations on bagging those peaks. We’re hanging out in the Sangres this month then to Durango. Looks like we’re following you 😊.
